Objective This study was performed to investigate whether misoprostol (PGE1 analogue) is effective for the restoration of bone loss in female rats with osteoporosis induced by ovarectomy. Methods The model of osteoporosis was established by ovariectomy in rats, and then the rats were given different doses of misoprostol. Bone mineral density(BMD), serum BGP and urine HOP/Cr were measured. Results BMD (0 26?0 03)g/cm 2 and (0 28?0 02)g/cm 2 in the misoprostal treatment groups was significantly higher than that in the control group 〔(0 23?0 02)g/cm 2, P 0 05〕 Compared with the control group 〔(3 02?0 42)?g/L, P 0 05 〕. Conclusions Results of our study demonstrate that the bone loss caused by ovariectomy was restored by misoprostol administration. The effect of misoprostol mainly is due to its promotion of bone formation.

BACKGROUND: The diversity of purification procedures resulting in various purities of olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) used for grafting is considered to be relevant in the effectiveness of OECs transplant. It is important to develop a well-defined method which produces OECs of great purity and is easy to unify for the future standardization of research involving OECs.OBJECTIVE: To establish a method being easy to unify for purifying OECs to acquire highly and uniformly enriched population of OECs for standardized studies on cell transplantation.DESIGN: Randomized and controlled experiment.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Affiliated Zhongda Hospital of Southeast University School of Clinical Medicine;Central Laboratory of Southeast University School of Clinical Medicine; Experimental Animal Center of Southeast University School of Clinical Medicine.MATERIALS: This experiment was carried out in the Central Laboratory of Southeast University School of Clinical Medicine from February to August 2006. Twenty-eight adult female SD rats weighing 200-250 g were selected in this study. The main reagents were detailed as follows: DMEM/F-12 (GIBCO); 2.5 g/L trypsin (GIBCO); poly-L-lysine (SIGMA); bovine pituitary extract (BPE, SIGMA); fetal bovine serum (FBS, Sijiqing Biological Agent Co., Ltd., Hangzhou);rabbit anti-low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor (anti-P75, SIGMA); biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG (Boster Bioengineering Co., Ltd., Wuhan); methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) kit (SIGMA).METHODS: Primary cultures of OECs were separated from adult SD rats olfactory bulbs. At day 8 in vitro, the primary cultures were divided randomly into 4 groups, namely differential adhesion method group, immunoadsorption method group,the modified method group,and control group.①The cell suspension in the modified method group was seeded into uncoated flasks and incubated at 37 ℃ in 0.05 volume fraction of CO2 for 1 hours. The supematants were seeded into flasks that had been prepared as follows. The bottoms of these flasks were moistened with anti-P7s (1 mg/L) and were made to dry at 37 ℃, and then they were washed one time with DMEM/F-12. The supernatants were incubated on the anti-p75-treated flasks for 45 minutes at 37 ℃, 0.05 volume fraction of CO2. For removing unbound cells, the flasks were washed five times with DMEM/F-12. The bound cells were detached from the flasks with a cell scraper, centrifuged,and resuspended in D/F-10S with 105 U/L penicillin/streptomycin and 20 mg/L BPE. The cell suspension in differential anchoring method group or immunoadsorption method group was purified as previously described by Nash or Ramo'n-Cueto respectively. Three groups of cell suspensions resulted from the above three methods were seeded respectively onto poly-L-lysine-coated 24-well cell culture chambers and incubated for 14 days at 37 ℃ in 0.05 volume fraction of CO2. Without purification, the cell suspension in control group was also resuspended in D/F-10S with 105 U/L penicillin/streptomycin and 20 mg/L BPE and seeded onto poly-L-lysine-coated 24-well cell culture chambers and incubated under the same culture condition as the other groups.②Purity comparisons for the four groups were made at 2, 5, 8, 10, 12 and 14 days after the end of their respective manipulation to evaluate the effectiveness of the modified method. At per time point in each of the four groups, fifteen visual fields of cultures were selected randomly to count the At the day of 14, viabilities of OECs in the four groups were assessed by MTT assays.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: OECs purities at per time point and viabilities of OECs at the day of 14 in each of the four groups after the end of their respective manipulation.RESULTS:① The purities of OECs in the modified method group at each time point were greater (P＜0.05-0.01) than counterparts in the other three groups. OECs purities decreased with culture prolongation in all groups, but the changes of purities over the whole period of observation in the modified method group were the least. The last purities of OECs yielded from the modified method were still extremely great (92.1±1.2)%, whereas the parallels in the others were no more than (85.2±2.2)%.② There was no significant difference in viabilities of OECs between the modified method group and any of the others at the day of 14 (P=0.895).CONCLUSION: The modified method for purifying OECs from the adult rat olfactory bulb is highly effective without extra impairment on the viability of OECs and will be beneficial to the future standardization of research involving OECs.

Objective To evaluate the midterm efficacy of prosthetic disc nucleus ( PDN) replacement for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation. Methods Twenty cases of lumbar disc herniation( including one case of recurrent lumbar disc herniation) were treated with PDN. The twenty cases were followed-up 5.4 ～6.2 years( mean 5.7 years). Functional,and radiographic follow-up examinations,MRI and follow-up records of all patients were reviewed carefully. Results Clinical evaluation at the end of follow-up,there were 10 cases in excellent,6 cases in good,2 cases in fair and 2 cases in poor,and good rate was 80%. One patient accepted the revision operation to remove the PDN because of device migration. One patient accepted the fusion because of adjacent segment disease. The others experienced pain relief, and resumed their normal life and work. The average Oswestry score and VAS get better significantly. Conclusion The PDN was effective in treating patients with lumbar disc herniation. However, the medium term complications of device subsidence should be taken seriously.
